Grey Lynn Park Festival - Saturday, 23 November

Celebrating diversity at the annual community-organised Grey Lynn Park Festival on Saturday 23 November

Come for your Christmas shopping, eat from around the world, enjoy our mix of free music and family friendly fun at Grey Lynn Park, Dryden Street, Grey Lynn.

New Zealand art, craft, fine fare, music and dance – it’s all there to enjoy without burning a hole in your pocket. Stroll through the gypsy village and meet up with those who prefer the mobile home to the city pad. Kids can enjoy Larry & Rosie’s Fun Fair, Farmyard Fun and other activities.

Discover a few new farmer market stalls, learn about permaculture, crafts and sustainable living; watch out for the bin fairies! Machine Park gives lovers of steam engines a treat and a yarn. Engage with the Circus Kumarani, Marimba Carimbas and AK Samba.

Base FM is back and now managing the main music stage. Exciting new musical draw cards will be there, award-winning hip-hop artist Poetik, reggae powerhouse Lion Rezz, Auckland’s freshest Afrobeat 7 dancehall DJs and dancers.

More to be announced soon. Plus a full second DJ stage featuring Base FM’s Jafa Mafia rig, the number one sound in New Zealand.

The festival runs from 9.30am to 6pm. Don’t forget it’s an EFTPOS free environment so put cash in your pocket, suntan lotion on your body and a smile on your dial. Remember we are a zero waste festival so put your waste in the right bin and we will compost it or recycle it.
